At least an Ultra 60 is expandable.

oh we playing the who-has-the-longest game. Until somebody came up with a E5500 and above. I claim the crown.
My currently octal E4500 with 10GB will blow your U60 into the weeds!
For sure you will fire up with size, noise or something. Then I could say, don't compare a U60 with a U5/U10.
